 What they are saying

Reviews
“An incredibly innovative photographer.”

Katie is an incredibly talented and innovative photographer. Her photographs are beautiful, and she is able to capture toddler smiles amidst chaos and meltdowns!

-Alyssa

“It was almost impossible to choose which ones to print.”

We had three sessions with her this year and are obsessed with all of the photos! It was almost impossible to choose which ones to keep & print.

-Julia

“She has the ability to capture one of a kind moments.”

Katie's skills as a photographer are top tier, you can tell she puts so much effort and thought into every detail of every session. She has the ability to capture one of a kind moments, the ones you usually miss as a busy mom/family.

-BettyAnn

“Outstanding business practice”

Her photography is exceptional quality, you’ll get artwork quality photos of your favorite people. She is super creative, fun to work with & has outstanding business practice with timely turn around and quick correspondence.

-Carmen

“I felt like she coached me”

Katie is incredibly professional, skilled and comfortable to work with. As someone who typically hates photos taken of myself, I felt like she coached me through it and made me feel good! And the photos we got back I couldn’t love more.

-Megan

“A stress-free experience for the whole family.”

She’s clearly talented as a photographer but I’m most impressed by her thoughtfulness and dedication to making each session a memorable and stress-free experience for the whole family.

-Haylie

“She keeps the photos authentic.”

Katie takes the most beautiful photos! She has such an eye for natural elements, keeping the photos authentic and not posed. She was also so patient and flexible with my family…a must with small kids!

-Kayla

“Her aura is contagious.”

Her aura is so bubbly and upbeat that it makes it super hard not to be contagious! I cant wait to have more family sessions in the future!

-Jocelyn

“She’s a gem!!!!”

She continues to capture our family perfectly and the end product leaves me in tears (something that doesn’t happen easily). She is a gem!!!

-Jessica

“The whole family was laughing and having a good time.”

By the end of our shoot, the whole family was laughing and having a good time. She made the process so enjoyable and even got our little one to start talking before it was over.

-Erik

“My husband said, “that was fun!”"

My husband does not enjoy taking photos but left Katies and said “that was fun!” She is accommodating, quick with littles and even with their constant movement, somehow always gets the shot.

-Kassandra

“We drive from Illinois for sessions with Katie!”

The thought she puts behind her Santa Experience, quick turnaround time on edits, and her style of editing are worth every penny!

-Rhiannon

“Do you want to feel like a million bucks in your photos?”

If so, you've found the right photographer. Katie's ability to capture personalities AND beautiful photos is remarkable. Her energy is infectious. After meeting her, you will feel like you've known her your whole life.

-Ashley

“Such a great joy and comfortable experience”

We will definitely be coming back to Katie, we just loved the whole experience and our photos. Thank you for capturing this time as first time, expecting parents, Katie!

-Yoselin

“This girl is hands down the best!”

The girl is hands down the best! If you have a feral two year old (like me) and want to capture amazing family photos - she’s your girl!

-Heather

“Just book with her already"!”

Stop reading reviews and just book with her already. Katie is an absolutely amazing photographer. Her studio is gorgeous , she is so patient and so yet efficient, perfect for capturing photos of wiggly kids or awkward adults (my family has both).

-Brianna

“Take my money…”

…is what I think every time I hire Katie for our next photo session. We have been working with her for the past 2 years for maternity and family pictures. She is AMAZING. She is professional, creative, efficient, talented, and easy to work with. Just hire her, you won't regret it.

-Kayla

“Katie makes me feel like i’m her only client.”

I said to my husband several times “Katie makes me feel like I’m her only client.” However I’ve seen her list of sold out mini sessions so lord knows that isn’t true!!

-Leah

“Taking photos with Katie is a complete experience.”

She knows our names, our interests, and helps us get positioned to take our best angles. I can't say enough great things!

-Abbey

Behind The Lens

Hi, I’m Katie

This whole photography thing started exactly ten years ago. I was a new mom in my emotional post-partum era when I decided that I absolutely MUST purchase a “nice” camera to capture my newborn that was growing at the speed of light.
